Well wouldn't their fade margin be calculated already to be high enough to poke through bad weather?
The issue with sat internet is the upload. How many watts are they going to allow each house to broadcast to get into space? -- Steven Kenney Network Operations Manager WaveDirect Telecommunications http://www.wavedirect.net (519)737-WAVE (9283) From: "chuck" <ch...@wbmfg.com> To: "af" <af@af.afmug.com> Sent: Friday, June 26, 2020 10:07:40 AM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Starlink They will have trees and snow to worry about. I am sure it will not be super cheap either. People don’t like antennas on their houses (sorry wisps but I do fiber now). I am not worried, but I was not worried about Covid either...

I'm not really because I don't care how hot your signal is, you'll be going over 100KM into space. No way they'll get stable latency. -- Steven Kenney Network Operations Manager WaveDirect Telecommunications http://www.wavedirect.net (519)737-WAVE (9283) From: "David Coudron" <david.coud...@advantenon.com> To: "af" <af@af.afmug.com> Sent: Friday, June 26, 2020 9:56:09 AM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Starlink We had done some poking around to see about the same thing about 2 months ago. We didn’t find much, but we’d be pretty interested in seeing of this is a possibility. We are wondering if it would be more feasible/cheaper than building out a new tower site for 2-3 subscribers surrounded by trees and will be the most the tower will every have on it. Or if you can make any money on it.

I heard there may be a way of being a reseller or to lease bandwidth through their system. I'd like to find out more information. -- Steven Kenney Network Operations Manager WaveDirect Telecommunications [ http://www.wavedirect.net/ | http://www.wavedirect.net ] (519)737-WAVE (9283) -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
